‚BFV’ the franchise game with most players at the moment
And by a mile. Be surprised. (Or not, as the case may be.)
Edit: Steam-only numbers.

- @TheseusJason Don’t sweat it, it’s the only open source for numbers so we already knew 😉
There was a guy playing BF2042 via the Xbox One app who went 152-17 this morning in a round of normal conquest on Redacted.
The one with the second highesf number of kills had 60 something kills.
So to me it looks like cheating is not restricted to older titles in the franchise.
@TheseusJasonBFV went on sale for like $5 or less quite a few times recently. That’s why it’s so popular. The other reason being that there’s not a lot of good casual type shooters right now. Everything is trying to be a GD esport these days.
It’s a great game, but I personally prefer 2042 movement and gun play. Cheaters are rampant in BFV as well. Dice gave up on it even when it was the current BF game.

Those numbers are pretty crazy, I wish we could see how many times a person was revived though. It's not impossible to go 100:1 legitimately if you have a squad with you and a bunch of medics reviving.
@VOLBANKER_PC I think if a PC player has a Xbox Game Pass subscription they show up as an Xbox Player through the Xbox app.
I don't know for sure but I remember reading that somewhere. I probably read it on this forum.Thought I should add.
Of course, a fps with no anti cheat that is purchasable for only $5.00 is going to be high in player count!
Had to put this here for perspective.
- @RaginSam It’s a hard sell even at five bucks lol. When the conversation starts with “it’s still pretty broken but it’s a lot better” it’s a hard sell. When they ask if it has a server browser, a very common demand amongst clan mates of course, it’s a hard sell. “Is it worth $5” is a question I don’t have an honest answer for so I just don’t mention it. Is it worth $5 to play for a night and never again? Nope.
- @RaginSam ah, that could well be the reason for its resurrection…
I agree. I was playing BFV all the time until 2042’s S5 and then dropped it. Despite plagued by ‘underhand players’ it was plenty more fun (IMO of course) than 2042. Then after S5 I hardly played BFV anymore. 2042 got into a really good place (shoulder-shrugging the lack of content and network issues).
P.S.: what is “GD esport”?
P.P.S.: re. network issues still on: yesterday went from a super match to another right after it where even LMGs were one-shot-killing me… (on top of *everything and anything* OSK’g me.)
